NTT Data signs Middle East-focused partnership with Nutanix

NTT Data, a global technology consulting and services business, has established a partnership with Nutanix with the aim to accelerate cloud and AI adoption in Middle East and Africa.

With revenues of over $30 billion and operations in over 70 countries, NTT Data is one of the world’s larger technology consulting groups. Nutanix meanwhile is a provider of hybrid multicloud platforms for running applications, deploying enterprise AI workloads and managing data.

The partnership will see NTT Data include the solutions and platforms of Nutanix into its offerings in the Middle East and Africa. The addition strengthens its services in infrastructure modernization and cloud management, which underpins broader data and AI driven transformations.

“This partnership reflects our shared commitment to helping organizations modernize, deliver simplified, secure and scalable infrastructure that responds to the real challenges our clients are facing.” said Hani Nofal, Executive and Head of Technology Solutions for the Middle East and Africa at NTT Data.

“Together, we can co-create tailored solutions, strengthen regional ecosystems and advance AI initiatives that deliver clear business outcomes.”

Mohammad Abulhouf, Vice President and General Manager of Nutanix, added: “By combining Nutanix’s simplified, software-defined, one platform approach and NTT Data’s trusted client relationships, we aim to reduce complexity, lowers costs and accelerate innovation to deliver faster transformation outcomes at scale.”

Earlier this year, NTT Data boosted its cloud business in the region with the acquisition of Zero&One.
